Chapter 1

Configuring the System Console

17

If the number displayed by the uname -r command is 5.0 or higher:

The Solaris OS software shipped with an appropriate entry for hardwire in the
/etc/remote

file. If you have reason to suspect that this file was altered and the

hardwire

entry modified or deleted, check the entry against the following

example, and edit it as needed.

Note –

If you intend to use the system’s serial port A rather than serial port B, edit

this entry by replacing /dev/term/b with /dev/term/a.

If the number displayed by the uname -r command is less than 5.0:

Check the /etc/remote file and add the following entry, if it does not already
exist.

Note –

If you intend to use the system’s serial port A rather than serial port B, edit

this entry by replacing /dev/ttyb with /dev/ttya.

The /etc/remote file is now properly configured. Continue establishing a Tip
connection to the SPARC Enterprise T5140 or T5240 server system console. See

“Accessing the System Console Through a Tip Connection” on page 14

.

If you have redirected the system console to ttyb and want to change the system
console settings back to use the serial management and network management ports,
see

“System Console OpenBoot Configuration Variable Settings” on page 29

.

Accessing the System Console Through an
Alphanumeric Terminal

Use this procedure when you are accessing the SPARC Enterprise T5140 or T5240
server system console by connecting the serial port of an alphanumeric terminal to
the serial management port (SER MGT) of the server.
